Dancing with the Stars pros Stephen and Kylee Vincent have announced that they are expecting their first child together.
Last season, Stephan was partnered with former Miss World Rosanna Davison, while Kylee was paired with jockey Davy Russell.
Now, the pair are getting ready to welcome the “first ever Dancing with the Stars baby” in October.
Speaking to the Irish Mirror, Kylee said: “We’re both really, really excited about the baby.”
“Touring and working in the industry we are in meant we put it aside for a while. But it felt like the right time now. We don’t know the gender yet, we get to find out at the beginning of June. Because we’ve moved to Northern Ireland, we’re going to go back to South Africa at the beginning of June to have a big gender reveal party.”
“We have thought of a few names but Stephen and I can’t seem to agree on the same names just yet. We both like Archie, but if it’s a girl, we haven’t settled there yet!”
“Growing up in the dance industry, you’re always away from home for a long time anyway,” she added.
“Stephen and I had always decided to settle in South Africa but after the last season of Dancing with the Stars in Ireland, we fell in love with it and there’s so much opportunity in the industry there. It’s all happened so quickly and we’ve moved within a year.
“Doing the series every year gave us six months in one place and we started really enjoying that feeling of not moving to a different hotel every day. We wanted to start growing roots, not in 50 different countries, but in one!”
The pair met through dancing in 2011 and tied the knot in 2017.
Kylee is originally from South Africa, but is currently living with Stephen in Strangford, Co. Down – having joined DWTS in 2019.
Speaking about their futures on the dance show, Kylee continued: “If the series does come back, Stephen would definitely love to be a part of it.
“Rehearsals usually start in November so I’m not sure how possible it will be for me, but if I can I would love to be a part of it.”
“I’ve had quite a diverse set of partners on the show. With touring, sometimes Stephen and I are partnered together, sometimes not.
“But moving into the TV work together has been so nice as we get to come home together and talk through what happened on each day. Because the experience takes so much of your time and energy, we still get to see enough of each other which is great.”
